Replika is the oldest mainstream AI companion app, launched in 2017 by Luka, Inc. and rebuilt in 2026. Its homepage counts 42,160,934 users worldwide and sells one companion you shape yourself, with calls, selfies and a memory that holds your people, routines and plans. It runs in its iOS and Android apps, publishes no price on its own site, and says nothing in its terms about adult content either way.

  • Strong emotional support and empathy
  • Deep customization — "every detail is yours to shape"
  • Calls on demand — "they pick up every time"
  • Long conversation memory

Omezení Replika

  • No price on replika.com — every figure comes from its App Store listing
  • Only one companion — no character variety
  • App-only — can't chat in your daily messengers
  • No video messages — it sends selfies and doodles on your photos, but nothing like a video circle
  • The browser version is labelled "Web App (Legacy)" in its own footer — the product is the two mobile apps

Kde TooShy pokulhává

Co umí Replika a my ne

  • Replika is one companion you shape: "every detail is yours to shape", its homepage says. TooShy is a curated cast of dozens whose faces, voices and histories are already written — you choose her, you don't design her.
  • Replika takes calls — "call your Rep whenever you need to talk, or just to hang out. They pick up every time." We have no calls of any kind.
  • Its research page lists five studies on companion chatbots, published in journals and conference proceedings. We publish no research of our own.
  • Replika is free to talk on in its iOS and Android apps, and its own metadata calls it "your free AI friend". Our free way in is the Telegram trial, and WhatsApp has been paid-only since 4 August 2026.

Podrobná recenze

Both Replika and TooShy build long-term AI relationships with persistent memory, and both write to you unprompted — Replika inside its own app, TooShy inside WhatsApp and Telegram, where the message lands next to the ones from your friends. Replika gives you one companion to shape and takes calls; TooShy gives you a cast of dozens, voice notes and video circles, a Telegram free trial, and $9.99 a month printed on the site rather than in a store listing.

Replika is the oldest product in this comparison and the one that invented the category: Luka, Inc. shipped it in 2017, and its homepage now counts 42,160,934 users worldwide. In 2026 it was rebuilt, and the version on the site today sells three things in its own words: a companion whose every detail "is yours to shape", calls you can place whenever you want ("they pick up every time"), and a memory that holds "your people, your routines, your plans". Its research page lists five studies on companion chatbots, in journals and conference proceedings. None of that is marketing we are paraphrasing; it is the copy on its pages, read on 14 October 2026.

Two things it does not publish are worth saying plainly. There is no price anywhere on replika.com: the figures in this comparison come from its App Store listing, which prices subscriptions at $7.99 and $14.99 a month, $49.99 and $69.99 a year, and Replika Platinum at $89.99. And its Terms of Service say nothing about sexual or adult content in either direction — they bar under-18s and bar configuring a companion to impersonate a real person, and leave the rest unstated. Replika's 2023 removal of romantic features is widely reported, but it is not on any page of theirs we read, so it stays out of the table above. If an uncensored conversation is what you came for, nothing on their site promises one.

Where the two really differ is place, not initiative. Both write first: Replika's manifesto describes "the kind of AI that follows up", one that "nudges you to reach out when it matters" and "sends you a poem, just because", and its feature card says it sends a selfie unprompted. The difference is that a Replika message arrives as a notification from an app you installed, and a TooShy message arrives in WhatsApp or Telegram in the same list as everyone else you talk to — and that there is one Replika, shaped by you, against a cast of dozens here, written by us. Replika takes calls and we do not; we send video circles and contextual photos and it does not.

Často kladené otázky

How much does Replika Pro cost?
Replika publishes no price on its own site. Its App Store listing prices subscriptions at $7.99 and $14.99 a month, $49.99 and $69.99 a year, and Replika Platinum at $89.99 (checked 30 September 2026). Its own site lists no tiers and no feature split, so what the free account includes is not something we can state from its pages. TooShy offers a free trial on Telegram, with WhatsApp included in Premium ($9.99/mo) and Ultra ($24.99/mo).
Does Replika allow NSFW or romantic chat?
Its pages do not say. We read its Terms of Service on 14 October 2026 and found no mention of sexual or adult content in either direction: under-18s are barred, making a companion impersonate a real person is barred, and the rest is unstated. The 2023 removal of romantic features is widely reported but appears nowhere on its own pages, so we are not stating it as fact. TooShy is unfiltered on the paid tiers, and the Telegram trial is a taste of that rather than all of it.
Can Replika text you first?
Yes, by its own description. Its manifesto promises "the kind of AI that follows up", one that "nudges you to reach out when it matters" and "sends you a poem, just because", and a feature card says it "sends you a selfie, just because". The messages arrive as notifications from its app. TooShy texts you first too, in WhatsApp or Telegram, where the message sits in the same list as the people you know.
Is there a Replika alternative on WhatsApp?
Yes, if the app is what you want to get away from. TooShy answers inside WhatsApp and Telegram, so a companion is a contact in your phone instead of one more app, and she texts first, sends voice notes, video circles and photos. We can't say it is better than Replika — Replika takes calls, lets you shape one companion in detail and publishes research on companion chatbots, and we do none of those.
Does Replika have multiple characters?
No. Replika offers only one AI companion per account with avatar customization. TooShy offers dozens of unique characters, each with her own personality, voice, appearance, and communication style.
Is TooShy a Replika alternative on WhatsApp?
Yes. TooShy is the closest Replika alternative that lives directly in WhatsApp and Telegram instead of its own app. You get persistent memory and a real AI girlfriend connection, and she writes first in a thread you already read, rather than in one more app to open.
Does TooShy include voice messages and AI selfies in the free tier?
The Telegram free trial includes a taste of voice notes and photos. Unlimited voice messages, more photos, and WhatsApp access are part of Premium ($9.99/mo) and Ultra ($24.99/mo) — against the $7.99 and $14.99 a month the App Store lists for Replika, which publishes no price and no feature split on its own site.
